Can Caris LeVert’s two-sided personality help him make next step?

Off the court, Caris LeVert is the quiet man, soft spoken and seemingly carefree. On court, it’s a different matter. There is a chip on his shoulder, a desire to make it work ... and as Ethan Spears of the Post notes Sunday, a sense that he’s been overlooked.

LeVert’s two personalities are on display here. He is soft-spoken off the court, but not without the insecurities that come with being overlooked. LeVert is quiet, not peaceful; confident, not cocky, the type of competitor who makes an impression.

Indeed, that off-court personality is a big reason he can be overlooked.
